====== Complexity and Algorithms Working Group ====== [[/gt-coa/index|fr]] / en ==== Presentation ==== The aim of the CoA working group of [[https://www.gdr-im.fr|GdR IM]] (see also [[https://mygdr.hosted.lip6.fr|myGDR]]) is to bring together all researchers in computer science and mathematics interested in the **design and analysis of algorithms**, i.e. the design of methods and tools for: * **design efficient algorithms**, including the identification of new algorithmic paradigms and/or analysis techniques; * **establish lower bounds** on computation time, circuit size, approximation factors and qualities, quantity of bits exchanged, etc. The CoA working group focuses on //all// forms of algorithms, including sequential, parallel or distributed algorithms, //online// algorithms, //streaming// algorithms, approximation algorithms, parameterized algorithms, probabilistic algorithms, quantum algorithms, etc., approached from the joint point of view of design (upper bounds, new paradigms, etc.) and analysis (lower bounds, complexities, etc.). The CoA working group is also interested in algorithms motivated by and applied to //all//types of environments: graphs, networks, biological systems, images, combinatorial objects, etc. Some of the the leading international CoA-related conferences are: [[https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symposium_on_Theory_of_Computing|STOC]], [[https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symposium_on_Foundations_of_Computer_Science|FOCS]], [[https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symposium_on_Discrete_Algorithms|SODA]], [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symposium_on_Principles_of_Distributed_Computing|PODC]], [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symposium_on_Parallelism_in_Algorithms_and_Architectures|SPAA]], [[https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_Complexity_Conference|CCC]], [[https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Colloquium_on_Automata,_Languages_and_Programming|ICALP]], [[https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Symposium_on_Algorithms|ESA]], [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Symposium_on_Distributed_Computing|DISC]], etc., as well as specialized workshops such as WAOA, IPEC, Approx-Random, SIROCCO, etc. **People and laboratories involved in CoA: ** [[https://mygdr.hosted.lip6.fr/GTView/1/|CoA webpage on myGDR]]. ==== News ==== * [[https://www.college-de-france.fr/fr/chaire/claire-mathieu-informatique-et-sciences-numeriques-chaire-annuelle/biography|Claire Mathieu]] (IRIF, Paris), CoA member, received the CNRS silver medal in 2019 * [[http://www.labri.fr/perso/mbonamy/|Marthe Bonamy]] (LaBRI, Bordeaux), member of CoA's scientific committee, received the CNRS bronze medal in 2021 * [[http://www-desir.lip6.fr/~doerr/|Carola Doerr]] (LIP6, Paris), member of CoA's scientific committee, received the CNRS bronze medal in 2022 * [[https://perso.ens-lyon.fr/edouard.bonnet/|Édouard Bonnet]] (LIP, Lyon), member of CoA's scientific committee, received the CNRS bronze medal in 2023 ==== Activities ==== === Future Events: === * 4ème Workshop Complexité et Algorithmes (CoA 2024), Institut Henri Poincaré ([[http://www.ihp.fr|IHP]]), Paris, 25-27 November, 2024 === Related Events: === * [[https://sites.google.com/view/matroidoptimization|Workshop on Matroid-Constrained Optimization Problems]], Institut Henri Poincaré ([[http://www.ihp.fr|IHP]]), Paris, 2-3 April, 2024 === Past Events: === * Complexity Days 2023 ([[https://complexity-days-2023.sciencesconf.org|Complexity Days 2023]]), Université Paris Cité, Paris, 13-14 December, 2023 * 3ème Workshop Complexité et Algorithmes ([[workshop2023|CoA 2023]]), Sorbonne University, Campus Jussieu, Paris, September 18-20, 2023 * 2ème Workshop Complexité et Algorithmes ([[workshop2022|CoA 2022]]), Institut Henri Poincaré ([[http://www.ihp.fr|IHP]]), Paris, 26-28 September 2022 * 1er Workshop Complexité et Algorithmes ([[workshop2019|CoA 2019]]), Roscoff, 1-5 April 2019 * Journée 2 octobre 2018 ([[http://www.irif.fr|IRIF]], Paris) [[journees2018|programme et exposés]] * Journées 27-28 novembre 2017 ([[http://www.ens-lyon.fr/LIP/|LIP]], Lyon) [[https://gt-coa.irif.fr/GT-CoA/Journees_2017|programme et exposés]] * Journées 28-29 novembre 2016 ([[http://www.labri.fr|LaBRI]], Bordeaux) [[http://5.135.166.57/COA2016/index.php/welcome/pagePresentation|programme et exposés]] * Journées 23-24 novembre 2015 ([[http://www.labri.fr|LaBRI]], Bordeaux) [[https://gt-coa.irif.fr/GT-CoA/Journees_2015|programme et exposés]] * Journées 10-12 septembre 2014 ([[https://www.irif.fr|LIAFA]], Paris) [[https://gt-coa.irif.fr/GT-CoA/Journees_2014|programme et exposés]] * Journées 19-20 novembre 2013 ([[https://www.irif.fr|LIAFA]], Paris) [[https://gt-coa.irif.fr/GT-CoA/Journees_2013|programme et exposés]] * Journées 21-22 novembre 2012 ([[https://www.espci.fr/fr/|ESPCI]], Paris) [[https://gt-coa.irif.fr/GT-CoA/Journees_2012|programme et exposés]] ==== Recent and future events closely linked to CoA ==== * [[https://2023.highlightsofalgorithms.org/|8th Conference on Highlights of Algorithms]], Charles University, Prague, Czechia, June 2-4, 2023 * [[https://www.filofocs.org/filofocs-2023|10th workshop of the French-Israeli Laboratory on Foundations of Computer Science (FILOFOCS)]], Université Paris Cité (Site Odéon), May 9-11, 2023. * [[https://www.lse.ac.uk/HALG-2022|7th Conference on Highlights of Algorithms]], London, June 1-3, 2022 * [[http://highlightsofalgorithms.org|6th Conference on Highlights of Algorithms]], The London School of Economics and Political Science (virtual), May 31 -
